If I had to guess I would say it would not be allowed but I always like to steer towards the cautious side with stuff like this. I also don't like to guess so figured I'd ask for a more official word.

It would be a sound deadener or sorts. NOT legal IMO.

i think bedliner on the metal skin of the vehicle cabin should be considered illegal. on the hood, rims, or separately mounted bumper it could be ok

Murilo, what is you car painted with? It looked quite interesting. It was a rough mat finish like a marine enamel or some sort of industrial truck frame paint. Not bashing, just curious.

I have no idea, I asked to my partner to paint it fat black and when I saw the car was like that, it is a black with a bit of texture, some guys were telling me if you spray paint and burn it with a torch on the moment you are painting you can do the same. World's strongest amplifiers

It almost has that rat rod look. All you need are some red pinstripes and coker tires.
